Established amidst the post-partition challenges, Islamabad Golf Club (IGC) epitomizes the resilience of golf in Pakistan. With roots tracing back to British patronage, the sport faced extinction post-1947, saved only by dedicated figures like Mr. Tajuddin Salimi and Mr. Rashid Habib. By 1958, Lahore was the golfing nucleus, hosting prominent clubs.
In 1967, President M. Ayub Khan inaugurated IGC, evolving into a national hub. The absence at the 1958 World Amateur Golf Council spurred the formation of the Pakistan Golf Union (PGU) in 1960. Affiliated with key clubs, PGU aimed to develop and regulate golf nationwide. The journey, marked by notable figures like Mr. Justice A.R. Cornelius, is a testament to golf's enduring spirit in Pakistan. Today, IGC stands as a prestigious institution, contributing to the nation's golfing legacy.
